[Qing Chuan] Koi Seven Brothers is a group pet

Cao Yin hurried back to Jiangning Mansion.

Knowing that he had returned to the Yamen, the old lady Sun hurriedly called him into the backyard to ask what happened.Sitting in the room were Cao Yin's wife and his younger brother Cao Quan's family. When Cao Yin entered the room, Mrs. Sun leaned on a cane: "Ziqing, the reason why the emperor didn't come to Jiangning Mansion...you Do you know?"

You must know that the Sun family ignored Cao Yin's objection and made the second son Cao Quan spend a lot of money to prepare for the emperor's stay, in order to show it well in front of the emperor, and by the way, show off in front of the big families in Jiangning.

But now the emperor has temporarily changed his mind...

Sun's heart was worried, not because of wasting money, but worried, could it be that the eldest son Cao Yin did something wrong without knowing it?

As for Cao Quan, he had other thoughts in his mind.

Compared with the big brother who grew up with the emperor when he was young, and went all the way from the bodyguard to the position of Jiangning weaving, he has nothing.Even in Jiangning Mansion, others only knew Cao Yin's name, but not his own.

Cao Quan was naturally unwilling.

It's just that he is three years older than himself, and all the good things in the world seem to belong to him.However, I don't have much talent for reading, and my talent for martial arts is really unattractive. Even the qualification for supervising students is obtained by donating money. The possibility of becoming an official through the imperial examination is too low.

Cao Quan finally chose to put the treasure on the southern tour.

This time, he worked hard with all his might, just hoping to use this finely crafted mansion to get the attention of the emperor, so that he could ascend to official career in one fell swoop.

But who knew that the emperor hadn't come to Jiangning mansion!Thinking that everything he had carefully prepared would be in vain, and that all the bragging words of himself and a group of friends would come to naught, Cao Quan felt depressed for a while. I wonder if the eldest brother is getting in the way.

He looked at his elder brother eagerly.

Cao Quan just wanted to know the general idea—if he dies, he must die clearly?

Cao Yin couldn't laugh or cry.

Facing everyone's staring eyes, he replied directly: "The emperor will go to Fuzhou this time, and the journey is so long that we can't delay. However, the flood of the Yellow River and the city of Haizhou have delayed a lot of time, so we skipped Jiangning Mansion for the time being. "

It was really a coincidence.

The more they knew it was a coincidence, the more depressed they were. A group of people had complex expressions, and after a long time they could only let out a long sigh.

It's just that Cao Yin changed the subject.

He said cheerfully to his mother: "The emperor gave me a task. Especially you—"

Cao Yin's eyes fell on Cao Quan.

He said earnestly: "If the second brother can do this well, there must be no shortage of promotions and titles."

Cao Quan was instantly excited.

The eldest brother has never been a big talker, he was very excited when he thought of this, he held his breath, and listened carefully to Cao Yin's introduction.

The more he listened to Cao Quan, the more his eyes shone.

He counted carefully with his fingers, and it didn't take a moment for him to chuckle happily.If yarn weaving can be increased by six times?No, no, as long as the promotion is doubled, you can make a lot of money!

And I can get from it...

Thinking about the high profits, Cao Quan couldn't help rolling his Adam's apple.But what Cao Yin said next made Cao Quan frowned, and he was a little reluctant: "We still need to recruit talented people? Of course, we must leave this kind of credit to our own family."

As soon as his words fell, Cao Yin frowned.

Seeing that the eldest son's face was not looking good, Mrs. Sun immediately interrupted the second son's words.Her face full of gaps was extremely serious: "Ziyou, you must remember that the most important thing is the emperor's confession, and you must not neglect the emperor's affairs because of your own selfish desires!"

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Sun hit the crutch hard.

She beat her second son hard: "If Erniang finds out that you have selfish intentions, Erniang will serve you with family law!"

Cao Quan loves money, and Mrs. Sun turned a blind eye to accepting small money, and even secretly helped cover it up.

After all, I have treated him badly since I was a child, but even a woman of the Sun family knows the importance of the weaving industry to the whole of Jiangning and Jiangnan. If Cao Quan dares to do something here, it will break the roots of the Cao family and destroy The future of the Cao family!

Sun's stern reprimand immediately made Cao Quan shudder.

He na na should be, and immediately waved away his original small thoughts.

Cao Yin's eyebrows stretched.

He smiled and made a relief: "Emiang, don't worry, there will definitely be nothing wrong with the second younger brother."

The announcement of improving spinning and weaving machines was immediately posted on the city gates of Jiangning Mansion, and then quickly posted on the gates of various cities in the south of the Yangtze River, causing waves of controversy.

Can the efficiency of the spinning machine be improved in this way?

The common people have never thought so much, but once the shackles in their minds are opened, coupled with the bright and huge reward, the common people can't help but move their hearts.

Spinning wheels and looms are things that many people have in their homes. For a while, people all over the south of the Yangtze River racked their brains and figured out all kinds of weird ways to try to win the reward in one fell swoop.

At the same time, the craftsmen in the Jiangning Weaving Mansion are also thinking hard, no one wants to give the high bounty to others.

Cao Yin thought it would take a long time to get an answer, but he didn't expect that when he and his brothers were busy preparing for the new spinning machine, there was a poor scholar in his 20s who looked like he was in his [-]s, wearing a tattered coat that had been washed white. The posted list knocked on the door of Jiangning Weaving Mansion.

It was only [-] days from the time of posting.

On the other side, they changed carriages along the river, and the southern tour team traveled for more than a month before arriving at Fuzhou Prefecture.

As soon as I entered Fuzhou, there was an urgent letter three hundred miles away.Kangxi thought that something happened in the capital, but when he saw it again, he was stunned by the news from above.

Prince Yinreng showed concern.

But before he asked, Khan Ama actually laughed loudly, and took advantage of the opportunity to stuff the letter into his hand.

It seems that it is not a bad thing but a happy event.

Yinti and the others also came over to look at it one after another, and everyone was shocked when they saw it.

A scholar came up with an improvement to the loom, and it was tested to be effective.This kind of utensil that changes the efficiency of weaving is also not very eye-catching, but it can turn the loom that originally required two people into a machine that can be used by only one person.

In other words... doubled the manpower.

Not only that, Cao Yin explained in the memorial that after using such utensils, the area of ​​the textile fabric can be doubled, which means that the utensils can increase the efficiency by four times!

The output of the spinning machine can be digested at the fastest speed.

The potential and bright prospects in it made everyone excited, and Prince Yinfeng was also excited!

only……

After calming down, Yinfeng became worried again.

This approach was discovered in just one month?This is really unbelievable.Yinfeng looked serious: "Khan Ama, this matter needs to be carefully confirmed."

Although he didn't think Cao Yin was such a rejoicing person, Kangxi also focused heavily on it.He immediately ordered Sun Zaifeng, the servant of the Ministry of Industry, and officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as well as trusted guards, to rush back to Jiangning Mansion for inspection.

If true...

You must know that the demand for silk fabrics in overseas countries is increasing year by year, but because the output is not high enough to sell to the outside world, many officials are very sorry for this, but now... if the output increases...

Think about how much the treasury will be filled?

Kangxi's breathing was a little short, and his eyes were flickering. As for Yinfeng's eyes that fell on the memorial for a long time, his heart was also full of excitement.

This scholar is a bit better than Chen Huang, at least he was admitted as a scholar.It's just that I won't be able to pass the exam in the future, and now I'm helping with the calculations and doing some research in some stores, and I was moved by hearing people mention the reward.

How do you know that once you do it, you will succeed.

Then Cao Yin also mentioned that this person doesn't want money but just something, so let him continue to do research.

This makes people more curious, doesn't it?

Of course Cao Yin is very supportive, after all, this person's little invention may bring in an annual income of tens of millions!Cao Yin not only supported it, but even bought a small courtyard in Jiangning Mansion for his research.

As for his research...

Also something exciting - clocks.

The governor of Fuzhou, the admiral of the Fujian Navy, and others did not see any traces of the emperor and his party, and just when they were puzzled, they discovered that the emperor and his party came in late.

It's a feast for the wind.

The emperor was in a hurry to tell Concubine Tong and Concubine Cheng about this great event, and they were waiting eagerly!

As for Yinyou, he wanted to find Nalan Xingde.Yinyou hurriedly came to the line of officials who were welcoming him, and looked up for the trace of Nalan Xingde... He just looked left, right, up and down, but he didn't find it.

Yinyou blinked his eyes.

He tilted his head in doubt, and couldn't help muttering: "It's strange... Obviously Han Ama said that Master Nalan would come to welcome him?"

Nalan Xingde: ...

He stared blankly at the little bun at his feet, and coldly glanced at his colleagues who were laughing out loud, wondering when Brother Seven would realize that he was always by his side?

Yinyou searched and searched, searched and searched.

He didn't find the handsome and handsome Master Nalan until the officials and guards dispersed.Yinyou's round face wrinkled into a ball, he folded his hands on his chest, feeling puzzled about this matter from the bottom of his heart.

Strange?

Where is Master Nalan?

The elder brother Yinti pushed the door and went out.

He raised his eyebrows: "Yinyou, what are you doing frowning?"

"Big brother-"

Yinyou was unhappy: "It is clear that Ama Khan said that Master Nalan will come."

Yinti looked at Nalan Xingde.

This should be Nalan Xingde, right?Not someone else?Should I have identified the wrong person?He rubbed his eyes and hummed slowly.

Yinyou was dejected.

He rubbed the corner of his clothes, sullenly: "But I haven't found it after searching for a long time..."

Yinti stared at Nalan Xingde in a daze.

Nalan Xingde smiled cheerfully, reached out and patted Yinyou's shoulder: "Brother Seven."

This voice is very familiar.

Yinyou was puzzled, he looked up at the guard behind him.This bodyguard is very handsome, with a deep outline, sword eyebrows and star eyes, and his eyebrows are [-]% similar to Master Nalan's. Unfortunately, he is so dark.

Yinyou looked away.

He blinked and looked at Yinti again.It's just that Yinyou's heart skipped a beat at this moment, his expression was a bit weird, he hesitated again and again, and turned his head to stare at the black-faced guard behind him, after a moment of contemplation, Yinyou tentatively asked, "Nalan...Master?"

Nalan Xingde knelt down on one knee.

He flicked his sleeve robe, and said softly: "My servant pays respects to Seventh Brother."

Nalan Xingde's demeanor is smooth and smooth, and his movements are like a picture scroll... except that the characters on the picture scroll are not so dark.

Yinyou felt a little guilty.

His eyes fluttered left and right, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence: "Master Nalan, you are so dark."

Yinti snickered.

Yinyou smacked his lips, somewhat regretful: "You know... I changed with Fifth Brother."

Nalan Xingde: "...changed?"

Yinyou shook his head quickly, looking more and more guilty.It was Yinti who remembered this, covered his mouth and laughed out loud: "Fifth brother said that he would exchange five uncles for one uncle from Yinyou. It is said that the five of them are extremely handsome, and in terms of appearance, they are no less than... Nalan in the past. Guard."

In the past...Nalan's bodyguard.

Nalan Xingde couldn't help touching his face: "Is there really such a difference? But my colleagues here said that the slave has become more heroic and manly in the past two years."

Yinyou wanted to speak but stopped.

you do not say?In the past, Master Nalan was a pure and elegant scholar, but now... the muscles that cannot be concealed even by a wide court robe, and the face that is so dark that it is almost impossible to distinguish the facial features...

Yinyou sighed quietly, everything was silent.
